In this lively and humorous episode of Covino & Rich, the hosts dive into the culture of stoner athletes and the evolving perception of marijuana in sports and society, particularly on 420. They discuss legendary figures like Ricky Williams, Mike Tyson, Michael Phelps, and Kevin Durant, exploring both the myths and realities of their cannabis use.
